Wow man you're the one asking the question while you could have looked at the specs of the damn device and learnt that for yourself. arrogant much? Or that was too hard for you was it?

Why don't you go to their website and look at specs like I did before accusing me of being arrogant. Lots of DSD info but no DXD info. Webpage must have been done prior to DXD. Its so new, I have only seen it available from one download vendor, Sound Liaison.

Matrix supports up to 768Khz. DXD is just a fancy name for 352.8Khz PCM is all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_eXtreme_Definition

Maybe they can't use the DXD logo without licensing it.

You did come up as a little arrogant, but I'm sure you didn't mean it.

Moving on.

For this, I am thinking of getting Element X for my below setting.
Currently, my studio monitors are paired with Sennheiser HDV 820 but lately I feel the A77X could even further surprise me if I hook them up with a more proper DAC.

My question is will it worth the price tag even if I don't use any streaming for the music source?
Are there any DAC only I should check out instead of paying for streaming part of Element X for its DAC function only?

Unsure but I think you would get better SQ if you get the sabre pro, and use the rest of the money on room treatment, maybe even check out software upsampling like HQplayer, it would require a powerful pc together with a NAA though, but in my opinion upsampling PCM to DSD on this DAC using HQplayer does make the sound somewhat better, especially when using HD800 things have more depth/width than plain PCM.

I have X-Sabre Pro DAC using HQ Player, and can confirm it is a winning combination!

I am a Korean living in Indonesia at a house company provided and I don't want to spend any money on the room acoustic.
Almost made up my mind to go for Matrix X-Sabre Pro (not MQA).
Never heard about HQ Player. Let me check it out.
Thank you for the inputs made!
